One of the cool things about Dwarves is their ability to build things. After all, Dwarves built Thor's hammer, didn't they? What other inventions do you think Dwarves might have come up with?

Personally, since they don't like horses, I suspect their vast underground cities probably have a public transportation system of some sort: maybe giant worms.

With Dwarves being good miners I would think that there transport system would be more like a train sort of thing like miners use.

No they didn't, no way... I don't care if you have conclusive proof, they just didn't... I am open to argument, but I am right! http://www.sffworld.com/ubb/smile.gif

Yes they did. I know. I saw them. I was there to witness it. You are wrong; I am right. You cannot argue with me. I am always right, except when I am left or bluffing...

I have never liked Randy Newman. Well, I am not sure if I have ever liked him, but he has the same name as Randy Newman, and I have never liked that guy, so I don't like him.
Denn, I don't care what you say, but wrong is also spelled d-e-n-n-i-z-m.
